Catherine strode into her supervisor's office, flicking her hair as she went.

"Hey Gil, I need you to sign off on my arson case."

Grissom held out his hand expectantly, never looking up from the rainforest's worth of paperwork he was trying to decrease.

Catherine placed the file in his hand and looked at his cluttered desk. Her eyes moved to the photos displayed there- the one of Sara and the dog, of Sara giving a 'Peace' sign. She smiled slightly at the picture of Grissom and Sara on their wedding day. Sara looked beautiful in her simple white dress and gap-toothed smile. Grissom looking very handsome in his suit and his blue eyes shining with love for the leggy brunette. The photo definitely showed how happy they had been recently, especially since Sara started working as a teacher at the university.

Catherine noticed a new addition to the collection of photographs. An ultrasound scan. She picked it up and looked at the unborn child.

"What's this?"

She turned it around so Gil could see. The corners of his mouth turned upwards and his eyes sparkled with warmth.

"That," he began, "is Baby Grissom number one."

"Sara's pregnant?" Catherine asked in disbelief.

Gil nodded slowly, "She's about 6 months along." His eyes glazed over slightly, lost in his own thoughts.

"6 months! Gil why the hell didn't you tell me?"

"I…errr…sorry?" He shrugged offering the feeble apology.

"You had better be sorry Gilbert! And you sure as hell better be looking after her, being pregnant isn't as fun as it looks- she needs plenty of rest and make sure she doesn't work to hard, also you might want to give her an extra pillow to support her bump while she's sleeping because…wait a second… you said number one?"

Gil smirked, "We want more than one child. We both grew up alone and didn't want that for our child."

"Do you know if it's a boy or girl?" She queried.

"We don't want to know. I like surprises."

"Congratulations, Gil. You two will make great parents." Catherine took one more look at the scan and placed it back on his desk. "Seriously… I'm happy for you."

"Thank you, Cath." He handed her back the signed file and returned her smile.

Catherine accepted the form and turned to walk out of his office, as Gil carried on with his never ending paperwork. She couldn't help but grin at the thought of Grissom and Sara as parents- the poor kid will probably know the periodic table, by heart, by the time he or she is one.
